Issue Details

When rendering an HTML content files which uses manual summary splitting shortcodes do not get evaluated and instead get displayed as raw text. This does not occur when using automatic summary splitting or manual summary splitting in markdown files.

I've produced a reproduction of this issue at https://github.com/danmharris/hugo-html-bug-demo. This contains two files, posts/withsplit.html and posts/nosplit.html which use manual and automatic splitting respectively.

When visiting /posts/nosplit the content renders as expected:

However when visiting /posts/withsplit, the shortcode is not evaluated:

Maybe this is related to the second part of #6451 because it happens under very similar conditions.

I can confirm this.
This breaks all my syntax highlighting because I have html posts with manual <!--more--> markers

Here's how you can reproduce with latest master:

mkdir hugo-test
cd hugo-test
hugo new site quickstart && cd quickstart
mkdir themes && cd themes && git clone https://github.com/yanlinlin82/simple-style.git && cd ..
echo 'theme = "simple-style"' >> config.toml
mkdir content/post

cat <<EOF > content/post/mdpost.md

title: "Mdpost"
date: 2019-12-30T15:21:57+01:00
draft: false
---
summary
<!--more-->
content
{{< highlight bash "style=default" >}}
echo $hostname
{{< / highlight >}}
end.
EOF

cat <<EOF > content/post/htmlpost.html
---
title: "HTMLpost"
date: 2019-12-30T15:21:57+01:00
draft: false
---
content
{{< highlight bash "style=default" >}}
echo $hostname
{{< / highlight >}}
end.
EOF

cat <<EOF > content/post/htmlpostwithsummary.html
---
title: "HTMLpost with summary"
date: 2019-12-30T15:21:57+01:00
draft: false
---
summary
<!--more-->
content
{{< highlight bash "style=default" >}}
echo $hostname
{{< / highlight >}}
end.
EOF

"HTMLpost with summary" does not render properly (all the highlight commands and code are shown as is), whereas the other two work fine

I can confirm that this is still an issue in 0.120.4 for .html content files.

[Dieterbe]

updating reproduction steps for the latest quickstart instructions using hugo 0.122, to confirm that still "HTMLpost with summary" does not render properly (all the highlight commands and code are shown as is), whereas the other two work fine

you can execute all the code below in a terminal in a temp directory:

hugo new site quickstart && cd quickstart
git init
git submodule add https://github.com/theNewDynamic/gohugo-theme-ananke.git themes/ananke
echo "theme = 'ananke'" >> hugo.toml
mkdir -p content/posts
cat <<EOF > content/posts/mdpost.md
